Chapter 26: Shut Down the Server
A day later, "Wilderness War God" still hadn't opened. The official website notified them that the game was being upgraded and more gameplay would be added.
Of course, the players complained about this and didn't believe their nonsense.
At this time, Penguin Games released two mobile games at the same time, attracting the attention of many players who wanted to give it a try.
"Penguin's mobile game finally up, I've been waiting for so long!" The netizens couldn't wait any longer.
At noon, Penguin's two mobile games finally appeared on the gaming platform and could be downloaded and tried.
In an instant, a large number players flooded in and began experience this legendary mobile game.
Penguin Games was also monitoring the backend data
real time.
In just an hour, the two games had more than a million registered players! And it was still increasing!
"Penguin's strength
unparalleled! Wilderness War God, they probably don't even know when the
server will be fixed! "The higher-ups of Penguin Games were overjoyed.
All the major video game media also reported on this grand occasion.
A video game media commented, "Penguin is a giant in the video game industry and its strength is unquestionable. It's so popular right after it was released, and the previously popular Wilderness War God is still not up due to server issues. I'm afraid they'll lose the precious opportunity to compete because of this. This week's mobile game popularity ranking is predicted to be Penguin's mobile game!"
All the major live streaming platforms also quickly opened a dedicated channel for Penguin's mobile game
It seemed that Wilderness War God would be defeated by Penguin Games' strong offensive and become
second-tier game.
However, some voices that were not so satisfied slowly rang out.
In a gaming group, the group members were discussing their experience of playing Penguin's mobile game.
One person said, "It's so good, but I feel like it's just so-so!"
The person downstairs agreed, "That's right, I still think that the game experience in Wilderness War God better. I encountered two bugs when I was playing just now!"
"The stability is bad, I'm dizzy!"
"It's so much worse than Wilderness War God! Seriously, the few rounds just now pissed me off!"
"Few rounds? Bro, what are you playing?"
"Let's not talk about it, be civilized!"
On a certain live streaming platform, many netizens were watching the streamer play Penguin's mobile game.
There was a lot of discussion on the bullet screen.
"The graphics are not good enough!"
"Is the host cheating?"
"I'm fifteen this year and I drive a Lamborghini. What about you guys?"
"I gave my grandson a Lamborghini today. What about you guys?"
"This game doesn't feel very good. It doesn't look as good as Wilderness War God!"
The host was also analyzing in real time and said, "In my personal experience, "Wilderness War God' is still better. Whether it was the graphics, the smoothness, or the feel of the operation, it was all more convenient. Penguin launched these two games too hastily. I encountered a bug just now. Otherwise, I would have won the chicken dinner in the previous round!"
Bullet screen: "The host can really brag, I almost believed it!"
"Hehe, don't you know what kind of game you're playing?"
"Are the bullet screen haters stupid? It was clearly a problem with the game, it's not the host's fault!
"
"Seeing the streamer play, I suddenly lost interest in playing. Let's wait for < Wilderness War God > to open!"
On the official Weibo of "Wilderness War God", some netizens tagged the official Weibo and asked, "When will the server be launched?"
"Penguin's PUBG game isn't interesting at all. Let's wait for the server to open!"
The official Weibo also issued a statement, "Everyone wait patiently. The server has been upgraded and will be launched in two hours. This time, the game has been further optimized and will open up more gameplay. Please look forward to it!"
Another hour passed and the growth rate
Penguin's PUBG mobile game slowed down. However,
because there were still many players who didn't have time to play, new accounts were constantly
being registered.
In a basement somewhere, a few members of the Octopus hacker group prepared their equipment
and prepared to "work".
"Red hair, if we do this, do you think that person will fulfill his promise?" A hacker asked.
"Probably." Red hair said, "He doesn't have to fight to the death with us."
"Then what if we attack the servers of those big companies and they find out?"
Red hair thought about it and said, "There will definitely be guesses, we just don't admit it. Moreover, we can expand the scope and muddy the water so that no one will know."
"That person is really ruthless. He gave us this trojan horse program that we have never seen before. When we finish attacking, we can sell it for a sum."
They prepared and started the network invasion
In Penguin's PUBG game, the backend data was still rising. Suddenly, there was an alarm, "Not
good, hackers are attacking us!"
"They dare to attack us? Are they looking for death? "Someone said in disdain.
"They're not looking for death, they've already broken through our network protection? F*ck,
they've already invaded our database!"
"F*ck, what's going on?" The people of Penguin Games didn't even have time to react before the
network fell.
"Quick, cut off the external network!"
Penguin's two PUBG mobile games were the same as Wilderness War God. The servers were suddenly interrupted and the players were forced to quit the game.
Not only that, some other companies also encountered the same situation. A powerful hacker attacked them at the same time, forcing them to shut down their servers urgently.
On the Internet, there was a lot of scolding.
"What's going on? Stupid Penguin, the game just launched and there's already a problem!"
"I almost ate chicken, what a waste of my time!"
"The popular PUBG mobile games can't even be played! Just like yesterday's Wilderness War God,
what happened?"
"There's an announcement saying that it's under emergency repair, the repair time is unknown!"
"What are we supposed to do? Every one of them is causing trouble!"
In Penguin Games, the higher-ups were furious.
"What's the situation? Our company was actually attacked by hackers?"
The subordinate said helplessly, "This situation is too sudden, there's no warning. Moreover, the
hackers seem to have a way to break through our network protection and specifically chose this
time to attack!"
"I don't care about this, I just want to ask you, when will it be fixed?"
"This ..." The subordinate was a little embarrassed and said, "We don't know yet, but we're trying
our best!"
The higher-ups couldn't help but recal
coming so soon?
what happened at Hongxin Games yesterday. Is retrib
"We must find out, it's best to find the mastermind! How dare they attack us, they're too bold!"
It's not only Penguin Games, but also some big game companies are facing this situation.
"This is a premeditated hacker attack!" In a company, the management was having a meeting.
"Currently, the technicians don't have a solution."
"There are no hackers in China, and our friends in the industry also don't know who did it. Is it
possible that it's a foreign hacker?"
"It's possible. But what's the hacker's motive? Currently, the hacker hasn't made any requests!"
These companies were confused. The only thing they could do now is to fix the network problem as soon as possible and reopen the server to avoid more losses.
What do you think?
